Still in the midst of moving, but the worst of the first half is over. I may have something up next week, but no promises. This month kind of sucks.

Touching Base #24
By the time you read this I'll be BACK in New York, only to drive BACK to Texas next week. I love moving. In the meantime, let's check what's going in comicdom.
Eerie Cuties and Magick Chicks are NOT ending. Apparently their kickstarters went through and they'll be back soon. I think I mentioned it earlier but consider this all offical like. Well, not quite yet, but we'll see when it gets going.
Licensed Heroes is updating again as well, but only once a week for the time being. I wonder what caused all the issues. . .
Speaking of temporary pauses, Sunstone (NSFW) and Head Trip still on hiatus due to injuries. Both are going through physical therapy so it might be a while before either of them come back.
Related to Sunstone, Bloodstain got a fan movie based on the first chapter. This is similar to what happened to No Rest for the Wicked. I haven't watched it yet, been on the road with limited net access, but they're thrilled by it, so go watch.
Elsie Hooper still not updating, the comic. Apparently, though, the MOVIE that this was the storyboard for is finished and is going to be in a film festival in the near future. Apparently they made it with stop motion puppets, so that explains why it took too long to film.
On the other projects list, Dead Winter has a playable demo of their game, and for a weekend it was open to everyone, but afterwards, Patreon members only. I did download it during the free weekend, but, again, no time to try it, but it's a side scrolling beat em up, so if you like that style, it'll probably be fun as hell. I do, sadly no time to play. Bleh.
Subhuman Sanctum and Twilight Lady getting more updates, though Twilight Lady is just wrapping up the current story. Subhuman Sanctum is into the second book, so I expect awesome things.
Commander Kitty is also updating again, the big animation project he was working on is done, so the Pateron is open again as well.
Gone with the Blastwave had a random update late last year. Given how often it updated before, I'm shocked there is at least one update. Maybe there will be another, eventually. . .
Perry Bible Fellowship is now appearing on Go Comics. It's updates are random, once a week is a bit much for it, but it does update. Most of the strips are the small, 3 panel strips, and yes, they are all new ones.
And that's about all I have for now. I likely won't have anything next week because holy crap will it be busy. After that, I'll try to say something. Until then kiddies.

Oh, hey, I'm in Texas
Long drive, not much to write comic wise at the moment. I've got a much more solid net connection that I expected, but I also have a lot of work to do, so don't expect too much for the time being.
I will try to have something up next week, a Touching Base, there's a lot of little things I'd like to go over. Until then kiddies.

Can't Live Without 2016 Edition
Well, this is nice, back to this once again, right as the new year begins as well, so that works out. You know, I never did state what the concept behind this really is, even back with the original one. Really the idea is that if I could only have 10 comics to read on a desert island, it would be these 10. Thus why the arbitrary order, there's no particular sequence or order they could ever actually be in, just there for me to read. So with that let's get the next one going.
1. Sluggy Freelance - Yes, it's still on this list and will remain there until it ends. It is and remains my Standard, and will forever and a day.
2. Schlock Mercenary - This one I call Best Overall and every strip earns it. It's a must read for science fiction enthusiasts, and lovers of humor as well.
3. Gunnerkrigg Court - Hmm, the first two have whole long series dedicated to them, but not this one, that seems odd. . . Maybe I should . . .
4. Derelict - Remains the only comic I bought a hard copy of, and probably will be for some time. Worth reading.
5. Sunstone (NSFW) - Despite the delays that have plagued this year, including a physical injury that crashed nearly all of his comics, I still want to keep reading this comic. Aside from being really great to look at, the comic is a romance of all things and it keeps me interested.
6. Between Failures - It's nice to have a comic that isn't really that "out there" on my list. No fantastical elements, just a comic about everyday people doing everyday things. Even introducing a group of "furries" is done without being too crazy (well, no crazier than normal for this comic).
7. Spinnerette - Still my favorite of the various superhero comics I've been finding. It's funny, serious and creative. Worth reading and enjoying.
8. Namesake - It taps so many ideas that attract my attention that I can't help but read it. Reading, writing, books, alternate realities ect etc. And it's damn good too, which makes it even better. Go forth and read it.
9. Stand Still, Stay Silent - When I first started reading it, I thought it would just devolve into another zombie comic, but it hasn't, at all. It's something significantly different, gorgeous and well worth reading despite it's disjointed (at least from the rest of the comic so far) introduction.
10. The Non-Adventures of Wonderella - My dose of laughter comic is still here and likely will remain for some time to come. Especially now that it's done with all that kickstarter nonsense and can publish regularly again.
Honerable Mentions go to Gaia, It Hurts! (sometimes), Skullkickers and The Meek, all of which are kind of the bubble of being on this list.
As I stated last week, the blog will be dark for the remainder of January as I finish my move and such. I hope to be able to post something during the month, but I suspect I won't even have a nothing post. It will be that crazy. Afterwards, I should be back to a relatively regular schedule. Hell, I'm already planning my next long series (if you missed the hint, reread this page), so I will be back. Until then, Happy New Year. Next time kiddies.
